  1. My reasoning about requesting a separate category is you would not have to scroll (or search) thru all the Rifle posts/pages for shotshell data.

    I do understand the website does have Search capabilities, but for me sometimes I open Category and will read page after page after page to learn and read other's experiences or questions. 

    And I definitely feel all the previous shotgun posts would not have to be transferred,  just maybe as of Sept 1, 2018 any new SHOTGUN posts could have their own category.

    Wads:  43 bags total for $ 100.00,  Lead:  20 bags of #8  @ $25.00 a bag.

  2. I wear the Electronics ones (my Open Gun is loud), but I wear them backwards when coming up to the starting box.

    We all know what BANG sounds like, and besides all the range commands will be coming from behind you.

     

    You will want to hear the RO Clearly.  I just prefer to have the microphones facing the RO's & the timer for the Start Signal.

  3. Lately the transfer / bushing bar is not traveling the full length of the "cycle". 

    I am bottoming out the handle each time and watching the primer drop in place, but every once in a while the bar stops about 1/2 inch short

    and then the next handle pull dumps powder everywhere.

     

    Cannot find anything the is binding on the transfer bar.

     

    Thanks.

  4. Just inherited 9 lbs of SOLO 1250 shotgun powder.  (8 sealed & 1 open)

     

    Cannot find any current  load data.  Older Burn Charts put it next to International Clays.

     

    Any suggestions?  Some sights suggest use  the Intl Clays data & back off  2 grains to start.

     

    Just want to build 1 1/8 target loads 1100 ~ 1145 fps

     

     

  5. But don't forget HQ does use Major MATCH Results also when calculating Classifications.

    If your match scores are a "B" percentage and you are classified as "C", you can be bumped into "B"  via the USPSA-President.

    1. A-Merc brass ~ Run from it. Took me over 2 hours to load 400 pcs on a 650. Kept getting stuck on the powder drop.

      Thought I was changing lug nuts on a tire when trying to lift the handle back up. I was warned to stay away from A-Merc but did not listen.

    2. S&B Revolver brass - Rim too thick to fit Dillon shell plate. This I just dump in the range scrap bucket

    3. GLF - many refer to it as: Good F****** Luck that it does not rupture. I have had them rupture.
